- Is Christianity just an absurd religion? Why does God need to die to pay for sins? Surely, there could have been a better way.

Pretty damn awesome for an imaginary deity, huh?

Paul copied Greek paganism in his letters. See how Dionysus became god, he was resurrected by Zeus.
This is brutally honest, psychologically profound, and admirably brave!

"Even God has his hell: it's his love for mankind" - Nietzsche. And condidering how wicked humans can be I think Nietzsche was right; his love for us Is double-edge sword
And this double-edged sword turned out to be for our own good. Without it, God would never have sent His Son into the world.
Well, what can I say except, “Even a broken clock is right twice a day?”
Nietzsche was one of the most thoughtful atheists. Truly a great mind
@@sjappiyah4071 except that god apparently has total power over human action or even his own feelings, so it's not really that impressive as a statement

"God loves us NOT because we're lovable, because He is love. Not because He needs to receive, because He delights to give." C. S. Lewis
Is that from the Bible?
@@mattr.1887 no, OP already said: C.S. Lewis
So why did he create hell and burns people forever just because they didn’t believe jesus did magic tricks?
This would be the god that killed 2.5 million in your own ignorant myth then ? The god that supports slavery, rape, child abuse and misogamy !

"You may scoff at the gospel and call it absurd, but you are absurd, and an absurd species require an absurd solution." -IP 2023
you may scoff at the idea that me having sex with your wife is absurd, but dontchyaknow that sometimes human behavior is more complicated than we expect? ok cool now that youve admitted that you're absurd, please surrender your objections and submit to this strange system i am putting forth
if you don't it's because you don't have a heart open to love and because you're a scoffer, btw. you'd understand if you didn't hate me

This can apply to any religion
@@JohnCamachoIn what other religion is God love?
@@donatist59 I'm not sure. What does it matter though to say God is love yet condoned the death of a man for picking up sticks on the Sabbath. Probably picking up sticks because his family was cold. That's just one out of many other places where God has a funny way of showing love

Thank you, I’m glad it was impactful
This title suggests that, according to the Quran, David was something more than a messenger: he was a divinely guided leader who established God's rule on Earth. This role is also suggested by 2:251: "God gave him authority (mulk) and wisdom (ḥikmah) and taught him what He willed.

@InspiringPhilosophy Have you seen the unseen realm with Michael Heiser?
Great video! Jesus was right when He said the most loving thing someone could do would be to lay down your life for someone else. It is completely absurd because it's the most loving thing God could do to save us!❤
God didn’t need to do it. That’s why it’s absurd.
HOW did you determine this 'God' or Jesus to be realities?
@@matthewsocoollike Bruh how do you know what God wants to do?
@@prozeemation_8658bro by reading the words of his Bible.
funny how jesus didn't sacrifice anything at all, so jesus failed his own claim of the best thing one can do.
A friend of mine, as an attack on my belief, said something to the tune of, "God sacrifices himself to himself to save mankind from himself." My reply was, "To paraphrase Jean-Luc Picard, 'What you say with irony, I say with conviction.'"
I watched a video a few days ago by David Wood, where he addressed this issue from a different direction. He noted how in ancient days, the pagans believed that the way to curry favor with God was to sacrifice what was most precious to them, culminating with sacrificing their children to Moloch. Then along comes Abraham, and God tells him to sacrifice his only son to Him. Same story, or so it would seem. But at the last minute, God tells him to stop, and says that He Himself will provide a sacrificial Lamb. In other words, God doesn't want us sacrificing our sons to Him; He sacrificed His Son for us instead. He flipped the understanding of the ancient pagans on its head.
Do you see this as a psychological life lesson, or as a literal event?
@@mattr.1887The answer should be very obvious to you considering that he is a Christian.
@@SoRunThatYeMayObtain - I don’t believe that it is obvious. The 3rd Century theologian Origen developed a way of understanding the Scriptures. He perceived that not all parts of the Bible should be understood the same way; he distinguished between various “senses” of Scripture as literal, moral, anagogical and allegorical. The allegorical sense looks beyond the most obvious reading to illuminate some greater spiritual truth - one story which could fall in that category is the story of Abraham’s sacrifice. While there are some Christians today who take an almost entirely literalist interpretation of the entire Bible, that is a fairly new development and is well outside how scripture was broadly understood for most of church history.
As a Christian, in the specific case of the story of Abraham and Isaac - if I’m asked if I believe it literally happened my response would be “I don’t know, and I don’t care”. Someone could provide compelling evidence either way, and it still would not impact or influence an allegorical understanding of the story.
@@MrCusefan44 Well, at least for me, Jesus mentioned things that happened in the OT and it seems to me he saw the flood as something that really happened. And with Paul, same goes for Abraham sacrificing Isaac. They saw it something that really happened. But I would be happy to be taught by others. I don't really know a lot.
@@SoRunThatYeMayObtain - “Seems to me” is the key phrase in your comment. Go back, reread the passages you are referencing, and ask yourself what would eliminate an allegorical interpretation.
As a non-Biblical example, I’ve listened to comparisons of Tony Stark’s sacrifice in Endgame to Christ’s sacrifice where - based solely on a written transcript of the commentary - you could not tell if the speaker honestly believed Iron Man existed. But a typical reader is going to bring outside context - it’s a movie, movies aren’t real, etc to conclude the speaker is aware Tony Stark/Iron Man are fictional characters. That’s appropriate in the case of Iron Man - but not appropriate in the context of Biblical exegesis. How are you concluding that Jesus believed Abraham literally believed the story with Issac?
It almost certainly runs into the same issue atheists point out about Jesus believing a mustard seed is the smallest seed in the world - and literalists have to create increasingly unlikely interpretations to counter atheist arguments.
The better argument is that we were given both scripture and tradition, and tradition never accepted a solely literalist interpretation. But accepting that would start many down the road of becoming Catholic, which is completely unacceptable - much better to hold fast to a newer Biblical view of literal exegesis which means atheist objections are valid.
“Seems to me” is irrelevant - how did it seem to the church, and what traditions have been passed down. If “seems to me” contradicts that - you’re wrong, plain and simple.
Had I not subscribed before I would have subscribed today. I will hold what is said in this video, and hold it high, as one of the reasons I'm a Christian. I wanna thank Michael and God for working through him in showing how absurd Christianity is. Love and peace.
Wait! What?!? "Absurd"? Please tell that is not a typo!!!
@@Theo_Skeptomai Looking forward to the day you become Theo_NotSkeptanymore.
@user-ch4ex3yy4l One should ALWAYS be a skeptic. Skepticism is the best approach, in my opinion, that establishes facts and those propositions that comport with reality. Do you agree?
@@twitherspoon8954 You are obvious being totally disingenuous, there is no such thing as cannibalism in Christianity. Eating and drinking actual blood is one of the worst sins in the Bible. Communion is not eating and drinking actual flesh and blood, its a symbolic practice of taking Jesus into us on a deep spiritual level through His shed blood atonement for us on the cross.
The only human sacrifice e in the Bible is Jesus dying for our sins, and Jesus was for more than just a man, He was God manifest in the flesh. If anything, its God sacrifice, not human sacrifice.
@@twitherspoon8954 Sorry but I'm going to have to debunk that with obvious facts. If you had actually read the Bible you would have known Christianity comes directly out of the Old testament many, many centuries before Jesus or Paul were ever born.
Isaiah 53:5
But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
Isaiah 53:10
Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.
Psalm 22:27
All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.
Psalm 22:30
They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this.
Several hundred other examples of Christianity from the OT, but you get the point.
Seeing people like Michael, David Wood, William Lane Craig, John Lennox, all the soldiers of Christ defending the faith gives me hope. Christianity has always made sense and still makes sense. God bless and replenish ❤🙏
@@twitherspoon8954 And who worships cannibalism and human sacrifice?? Aren't you an atheist?? Is there justification in your worldview? So why are you asking for a justification for my own?? You're a walking contradiction 😩
@@twitherspoon8954 It's not cannibalism. The Eucharist is symbolic, and it doesn't represent cannibalism. It is simply a reenactment of the Jewish festival of Passover, which, for Christians commemorates Christ's death. The death of Christ is not human sacrifice, in the ritual sense. It's self-sacrifice. Jesus could have defended himself against his killers but chose not to in order to lay down an example for everyone else to follow in order to end humanity's cycle of violence and oppression.
Christianity does not make sense.
It actually does when you are born again. You aren't good enough to make it to heaven based off your good deeds. Jesus who is God became man to die for our sins.
Jesus is the only way to heaven and the only means of salvation. Jesus is Lord and Savior. Every knee will bow to Jesus.
To all who don't believe: God exists. I used to be agnostic and mentally mock religious people. But when I was going through difficulties (personal insecurities), God spoke into my heart and helped me. And the love I felt in my heart was the greatest feeling in the world. It is stronger than the kindest mother could ever love her children. A love that takes away any sadness. Now I don't just believe, I KNOW He exists. He will help you through anything. Even if you don't believe, still talk to Him, like you would talk to a friend. Ask Him to reveal Himself to you. And if you TRULY want it, it will happen. I can't tell you when or how. That's different for everyone. But He will guide you to the truth. And He will ease any pain you may have. He is the only One who can. Wishing you the best.
Ok how was that experience of God talking to you un your heart. How can you tell it's him?
@supergastonh It's difficult to explain. But I felt His greatness, His authority over all things. He was very strict but very loving. Like a Father. But His love was far greater than parental love. It was indescribable. It was almost physically overwhelming. And He revealed to me things that I never knew, as I had never truly studied the Bible, such as that we must love Him more than our own parents, and that the true reason we help people on Earth is to glorify His name. Please pray with true intentions in your heart. I hope you find Him. Best of luck.
@@transatlanticnostalgia4655 well, thank you for your prays. I suppose is something very subjective to share.
Maybe someone would find better words to illuminate me.
I fear maybe I havent realized uf he talked me sometime
I’ve experienced what you claim to have experienced as have others and I as well as others now are Atheists. If the thing that made you believe is a psychological experience that can be produced without god and in other religions you cannot justify a belief besides an emotional appeal argument.
@@supergastonh How do you know that anything you experience is real? Unless you have sufficient reason to question your experiences, you shouldn't doubt them.
Normally I would have avoided a video like this but I felt like I should watch it and comment, this wasn't at all what I thought it would be and I love it. Thank you god and I pray for those that click on this video with negative views on Christianity to come out of it with a new perspective and hopefully the first seeds of faith is planted in their hearts.

Humans think we're rational creatures that have emotions. When in fact we're emotional creatures that are occasionally rational.
@@InfoAddict26 Absolutely, I have a hundred and fifty IQ. I find that everything I do has an emotional basis foundational to it.
There's a reason why sociopaths seem so alien to us.
humans are 100% rational, there is just a lot of wrong information and background information that we can't track
but based on our limited resources, literally everything we do is a rational choice based on what exactly what going on in that situation
even emotions are rational, they're ways of storing information in your feelings instead of your conscious mind, so you don't have to constantly justify basic facts about life whenever you want to think about something
'God' being the worst symptom of our irrationality.

I have autism and I find it hard to connect, love and understand other people, never mind the so-called transcendent Creator of everything. The notion of “God’s love,” “experiencing God” or “communicating with God” seems so alien to me that I don’t even know where to begin to comprehend or experience it. How do I overcome this burden and difficulty? How do I actually get to experience Him and have a relationship with Him? I would love to speak to Him one-on-one and come to understand Him and Him understand little old worthless and broken me 😞
Hey, Jimmy I appreciate you sharing your heart. I'm sorry that your autism makes it hard for you to connect with God's love, bro. I just want to tell you that I'm praying for you right now and that somehow, through space, time, matter, and your own autism God can show himself as real to you as this video. You're not worthless, bro, God loves you so much that He died specifically for you, even if you were the only one in existence...God can restore all your brokenness and make you whole. I fully believe it. 😊
i have autism too and i understand what you mean but i'm writing to let you know that it is possible. I know God and He knows me, He reached out to me and all i had to do was say yes to Him. He took care of me being able to understand Him and all of this. Reach out to him, pray to Him and ask him to help you understand and He will! ❤
There’s a great book called “Blessed are the Misfits” and it’s by a Christian author on the spectrum, I think you would really love it
I say check out David Wood. He doesn’t have autism, but he does have a mental condition yet still follows Christ, along with having a family.
My friend, you feel that it limits you when in reality we are the same we are all but ants on the tarmac attempting to comprehend the 747. We could worry ourselves into a early grave in attempts to comprehend God, accept the fact that God loves you exceedingly incomprehensibly. Sometimes he is silent, yet it doesn’t mean he is not there. Sometimes we need trials to correct us through hardships. God loves you my friend never forget that and don’t question it.
Such a beautiful video im impressed by how you put these videos together every video is just beyond good

@@theguyver4934damn conspiracism
Your explanations are always easily understandable
Love is more than biology, more than emotion, it's a verb more than a noun.
That’s become quite unpopular. Nowadays love is just a feeling, and a person’s commitment to another is only as deep and as lasting as the emotion is. Hence why you have people getting divorced for “falling out of love.” Love is a decision and that decision transcends our feelings.

A lot of people don’t like the crucifix because it they say that Christ isn’t on the cross anymore (which is true, but it doesn’t mean we can’t have a statue) but mainly because they say it was humiliating for him at the time. But for me and many other Christians, we don’t view it as humiliating, but rather the greatest act of love the world has ever seen. The crucifix is a great reminder of how much He loves us.
Exactly. The Cross is a symbol for God's love.
Beautiful narration you have here. very deep. I'm crying.
So so good. Thank you. Keep doing what you're doing.
The real irony is that if love is just an evolutionary tool, then so is hate and selfishness, and people are free to choose whichever tool that suits them best. Both are equally legitimate ways of adapting and surviving.
Yes, but some are beneficial more often than the others. Love is much more often beneficial than hate, hence it's fortunately more prevalent. But for instance during WWII hate was much more beneficial, hence millions of people were killing millions of people just as they have been told by their superiors.
@@piotr.ziolo. Yup. It's all subjective and people are free to love or murder as they see fit. Without a higher moral authority, it's all equally 'correct'. The universe doesn't care whether we choose peace, war, or indifference. All are beneficial to someone.

His mother's pain tore his world apart.
Yet, through friendship's lens, he found the light,

*In empathy's embrace, friendship restores."*

Explored the depths where faith was found.
From skepticism's grip, he did unbind,
A quest for truth within the mind.
*"Dreams may wander," Jung declares,
*In empathy's language, understanding shares."*
Together, their stories unfold,

In dialogue's dance, let's intertwine,
Lewis, Jung, and us, in friendship's design.
*"Listen to stories," the Golden Rule voices,
*In empathy's sanctuary, friendship rejoices."*
For atheists, friends we aim to be,
With Lewis and Jung, let hearts decree.
In understanding's garden, we shall tend,
A bridge of empathy that will never end. 😌🤷♂️I guess they got to be like these two gentlemen. Who found God by themselves after very wise counsel .

A great video as always I like your videos so much

And God bless you and your family
I'm in tears, Sir. What a beautiful and succinct picture of our desperate need, and His complete fulfillment for us.
Thank you Jesus that because of your work on the cross...mercy has triumphed over judgement.
you're not in tears.
Great Work again! I saw someone ask once "what type of book is the Bibble?" and I though, for the ancient ones it would have been a comedy, like the Oddisey, but after seeing this video I get it more clear, the Bibble is certaintly a love story, a story of the love of a creator for his creation. Keep it up! Despite the Suffering of the world God is always there for us.
God Needs a Psychiatrist , Talks Prays to Himself and is a Sadist to Himself , Cuts Himself etc.

Good job on the title!!!! Praise god this will bring people in to hear this very important message..... Who weren't necessarily looking for god but possibly even a way to prove him..... Wrong.... This invites those people in and Instead, They find Answers they didn't even know they were asking........ Bless you brother

This channel is a blessing!
Thank you
When you are feeling lost, and you feel true despair. That empty loneliness you feel in the pit of your stomach that almost aches. That is your soul in the throws of hunger for the sustenance it needs and craves. That can only be filled with Gods love.
That is utterly insane and ignorant
no, that loneliness is caused by your insane superstition alienating everyone around you. you need socialization with people. not santa claus.
Very cool, thanks for this important message! 😀
Showing us how much He loves us moved me to tears ! Thank you 🙏
Brilliantly writing and made. Another powerful video from Inspiring Philosophy.
Splendid message as always. It reminds me of a quote by Von Balthasar which resonates well with this video of yours.
"No fighter is more divine than one who can achieve victory through defeat. In the instant when he receives the deadly wound, his opponent falls to the ground, himself struck a final blow. For he strikes love and is thus himself struck by love. And by letting itself be struck, love proves what had to be proven: that it is indeed love."-Hans Urs von Balthasar
Keep up the good work, Michael!

@@meowlionkatz And you need to read upon Christian Theology since you don't understand the Trinity with their distinctions between the persons (Father, Son, Holy Ghost). Mischaraterizing doesn't get you far.
Thank you Michael, you're awesome!
Maybe one of the best videos of IP. Teary eyes here. ❤❤❤
